I’ve been browsing around the Arcane Radio Trivia website and there’s a lot of interesting stuff up there.
This morning I stumbled across this..
Anyone familiar with the goverments Interdepartment Radio Advisory Committee?..
The way this guy wrote about them, it makes them sound kind of mysterious..

I’m also seeing something else that caught my eye on the NTIA website..
Several lines down, under the President’s Spectrum Plan Reports:
An Assessment of the Near-Term Viability of Accommodating Wireless Broadband Systems in the 1675-1710 MHz,….

Am I misunderstanding that? Wouldn’t that infringe on the our upper public AM band?

ummmm.. ok, disregard the second part of that post concerning the 1675-1710 mhz.. I never was good at decimals

Right after a nap I read this post and right away needed a second nap.

For all the departmental reps that make up the IRAC there is no rep from the FCC nor Congress. What government are we talking about? It’s like “Homeland” is a different name from “United States of America.” I don’t see Homeland on the map.

And what is “The Broadcasting Board of Governors?” Am I on that board? Who are they? How are they different from all the other boards of IRAC and the FCC.

Maybe that e-mail I got the other day from Abdul asking for 1-hour of my time to increase the power of a 20-watt FM station was possibly KAFA, which by co-incidence is the only 20-watt station we’ve been able to discover.

Maybe we should start a “Neighborhood Radio Board of Secrecy” and hand out radio licenses printed with invisible ink.

Take a nap, call back later.
